While it’s impossible to put them all under one category, except for all of them being outcasts, finding out whatever unique powers the Addams family members have can be a lot of fun.
Netflix’s Wednesday gave us a lot to obsess about. The TV adaptation of the iconic Addams family franchise sparkles with new colors (all of them being different variations of black, of course) and shed light on many aspects of their lives we never even thought about before.
For example, we learn about Nevermore Academy a lot, realizing that it’s a special place for all the types of outcasts to feel safe (sort of) and having a chance to master their special powers. And talking about them, Wednesday makes sure we embrace diversity.
The said diversity shines within the family, too. If you ever wondered what types of outcasts the Addamses are, here is all we know.
Goody Addams
In Wednesday, Goody Addams, Wednesday's ancestor from the 1600s, is portrayed as a powerful witch. So she is an outcast who possesses supernatural abilities like witchcraft and psychic visions.
Wednesday and Morticia
Wednesday and Morticia are both psychics. Wednesday is a Raven, which means she experiences dark and potent visions, while Morticia is stated to be a Dove, that’s why her visions are a little lighter and overall positive.
Puggsley and Uncle Fester
It wasn’t clear until season 2 that Puggsley has any kind of power, but now it’s clear that he is a Spark, just like his Uncle Fester. Spark is a type of outcast who possesses the rather unique ability to generate electricity throughout their body, harnessing the power to create lightning bolts.
Gomez Addams
There’s still nothing particular learned about Gomez, and it seems like he is some sort of a “normie-outcast”. However, his tastes are far from normal, and it’s obvious he is going to show his powers anytime soon.
Grandmama Hester Frump
In Wednesday, Grandmama is portrayed as a wealthy mogul who owns Frump Mortuaries. While it is not stated precisely what kind of powers she has, she might as well be a witch with potion-making abilities who can also cast spells.
